Sister Carrie

The debut novel of Theodore Dreiser.

For world literature, it became one of the symbols of American realism: with genuine credibility, the author describes the life of a provincial actress seeking happiness in the great city of Chicago…
Critics in the early 20th century received Dreiser's first works coolly, even hostilely, and the publication of "Sister Carrie" faced such difficulties that it led its creator into severe depression.

But the subsequent fate of the novel turned out to be fortunate: it was translated into many foreign languages and reissued in millions of copies.

New and new generations of readers eagerly immerse themselves in the twists and turns of Caroline Meeber's fate.
